RP: Meeting the Master of Bones

From HollowWiki

This is a Necromancer's Guild RP.


Synopsis: Joan and Xzean meet in the Black Library

The Black Library

Xzean is sitting at one of the various chairs that dot the library. He has a book in his hands, entitled "Reanimation Esoterica"..



Joan steps down the ladder and into the library proper, the vampire merchant having a free rare moment to herself took this time to come visit the library and check out a few new books. Taking notice of the new person, Joan would offer a polite enough smile and nod of head in greeting. “Hello, who might you be?!” She ask as she draws up close in the strangers table, one pale hand resting on the table top as she now gives the man a curious once over.



Xzean looks up at Joan, eyeing her with his milky white eyes, lit from behind with an eerie red light. He is tall for an elf, which is obvious from his long, pointed ears. He is wearing a black robe, with a black hood that is currently pulled down. All over the hem of the black robe are arcane sigils in a shiny silver. He responds to Joan by saying, "We met briefly, the other day. I am Xzean, Noviate Morius of the Necromancer Guild."



Joan rocks back on the low heels of her shoes as she looks over the hooded Xzean, a thoughtful look is given as she shakes her head from side to side, “Oh...did we? Sorry, I don’t recall the other day, memory lapse.” She grins enough to flash a hint of fang down at the other before she points out the book he had out. “Nice choice, have you been tested yet?”


Xzean nods, snapping the book closed after placing a bookmark in it. "Yes, I have. Joining was a bit of a formality for me, my sire taught me Necromancy a long time ago." Xzean continues, "I am known as the Master of Bones as well. My sire taught me Necromancy a long time ago and bestowed the title", Xzean says, his voice so still it reminds you of a snowy glade that is unbroken by man or beast.


Joan makes a slender fist, turning to rap her knuckles along the wooden tabletop she smiles fully now, “Good to hear, tho in the guild we are not allowed to study the more advanced arts till we prove we have a firm grip on the basics.” She nods towards the book the male had just snapped close. “Is that your personal copy or from the library here? I won’t mention it to anyone, I believe in free open study, gaining as much knowledge as possible, so long as you do any research and or practice in proper warded, shielded areas.” Joan’s bookish nerd side was clearly shown. “You should already know all this, sorry, I tend to ramble off.” She laughs lightly at herself reaching back with her free hand to rub at the back of her head in a clear embarrassing manner. Joan then claps her other hand against her pallid cheek after she heard Xzean declare his title. “Oh, Master of Bones huh? Snazzy, I don’t do titles...not till I test and pass the next level in the guild, then I’ll bother with a title for myself.” Joan would then disappear into the stacks after a polite wave of goodbye towards the other, not wanting to really hear his answer about the book.
